233: Chapter 233 Lin Mo’s real powerful enemy appears!

Earl William slowly rose from his seat, his steps steady, and walked towards the nearest culture dish. His withered fingers gently brushed the cold glass surface, his eyes deep as he gazed at the figure curled inside.

"However, you don't need to worry excessively," his voice remained steady, carrying a calm demeanor as if he controlled everything. "Lin Mo's rise… precisely proves that the research direction the company has poured countless resources into is correct."

"Power beyond the mundane, transcending worldly rules, and even… the mighty strength to easily overturn a nation."

"This is the ladder to becoming the master of the new world."

Lin Tianhe, however, was not comforted in the slightest, his voice sharp with urgency: "But Earl! His ability is too bizarre! He can control sand! It's all-pervasive! Even if we hide a thousand meters underground, that sand could still seep in through ventilation ducts, through the tiniest cracks! At that point… we…"

"Haha," Earl William let out a low chuckle, interrupting Lin Tianhe's panic. "Don't worry, Mr. Lin. He is merely a slightly special… accidental product among our many 'works.'"

As he spoke, his bony finger gently pressed an inconspicuous button on the base of the culture dish before him.

Hiss—!

A slight hiss of escaping air.

The level of the pale green nutrient solution in the culture dish began to drop rapidly, quickly being drained through the pipe at the bottom.

The muscular male inside, with golden hair and a physique as perfect as an ancient Greek sculpture, his eyelids twitched a few times, then snapped open!

Those were… cold eyes, devoid of any emotion, like the purest blue sapphires!

Bang!!

He didn't even make any preparatory movements, just casually raised his hand, and punched!

The thick, specialized reinforced glass culture dish, like fragile sugar glass, instantly shattered into countless fragments! Splashing everywhere!

The fragments struck distant instruments or other culture dishes, making crisp, crackling sounds.

The man, barefoot, walked out slowly, treading on glass shards and water.

An invisible force field seemed to surround him, preventing the debris from approaching.

He floated an inch above the ground, silently drifting behind Earl William, his hands naturally hanging at his sides, his chin slightly raised, his gaze contemptuous, carrying an innate, extreme confidence that crushed all living beings.

Earl William didn't even turn around, merely gesturing casually backward with his fingertip.

"Allow me to introduce."

"Codename: Homelander."

"Cultivation Subject One."

"Abilities: Extreme strength, accelerated healing, biological force field flight, high-heat laser eyes… and a nearly indestructible body."

"He is the perfect embodiment of war."

Then, Earl William, as if strolling in his own backyard, walked towards another culture dish.

Inside was a robust male with black hair, a rugged face, and aquatic features.

"Codename: Aquaman."

"Son of the Ocean. He can hear the whispers of marine creatures from thousands of miles away, mentally drive tides, traverse the Mariana Trench as if walking on flat ground, and his strength… is enough to overturn an aircraft carrier."

He then pointed to a huge cultivation subject whose entire skin was pale green, with muscles grotesquely bulging.

"Codename: Hulk."

"The angrier he gets, the stronger he becomes. Theoretically, there is no upper limit to his strength. Conventional weapons are like tickles to him. We prefer to call him—the Indestructible Hulk."

He introduced them one by one, his tone as flat as if he were describing inventory in a warehouse.

Finally, he stopped in front of an empty culture dish.

There were only traces of residual nutrient solution inside.

But he still introduced it as usual:

"Codename: shang-chi."

"He can perfectly wield the Möbius Rings forged from the core of an extraterrestrial meteorite, activating the cosmic energy contained within to unleash… devastating strikes capable of rewriting the laws of physics."

Looking at these rows of terrifying beings, like mythical creatures, and feeling the palpable sense of oppression emanating from 'Homelander'… Lin Tianhe's heart, which had been almost frozen by fear, finally warmed up little by little, and began to beat violently again!

Blood surged back to his face!

A great euphoria and excitement of surviving a catastrophe washed away his previous despair!

"Too… too amazing!!!" His voice trembled, but this time from excitement. "Earl! You… you actually control such powerful forces!!!"

"With them here! It's more than just defeating Lin Mo!!"

"Dominating the globe!! Mastering the new world!! It's within reach!!!"

He seemed to already see Lin Mo being sliced into pieces by Homelander's laser eyes, smashed into meat paste by Hulk, swallowed by the giant waves summoned by Aquaman… In comparison, Lin Mo's ability to control sand and make heads explode… seemed… not so invincible after all!

Earl William turned around, looking at the uncontrollably excited Lin Tianhe, a barely perceptible, cold curve forming at the corner of his mouth.

"So, Mr. Lin…"

"Now, can you truly…"

"Rest assured?"
